    That scares me! My business unit is being sold to another company, I am the youngest and other things, but I am terrified about losing my job!

    Hope it all works out. Look on AJC.com easy place to browse, MONSTER and Career Builder are good but list too much at once....

    AWESOME...everything happens for a reason and I LOVE the support....that's why I posted here initially, I will dust off the resume tomorrow, the cool thing about being in production is you deal with designers all the time, but the downside is you have to deal with incompetence...I've been given the chance to flip it and everything in consideration, I'm gonna stand firm with this being a positive transpiration....

    Talk to Shane...See what the weight standard is for your height...Is that the only thing holding you back?. Also, check out the Navy, they have ATC also....A good friend of mine from HS was ATC on a few carriers...
